After being forced to marry the prince

However, Chu Wu just shook his head after hearing what Gu Qing said, and said to Gu Qing: "What are you going to do when you go back? According to the temperament of these people, if there is really no one in the house, I'm afraid the house will be demolished when your general comes back. .”

From the beginning to the end, he never believed that something would happen to Gu Baiji.

Gu Qing heard that although he had already guessed the answer, he was still a little more grateful for Chu Wu's decision.

At night, after Chu Wu coaxed Gu Nanshu to sleep, he locked himself in the study and did not come out all night.

On the desk in front of Chu Wu was a thick stack of books about the topography, weather and even folklore of southern Xinjiang, which meant that he would not rest until he finished reading them.

Ever since the news of Gu Baiji's disappearance came, Chu Wu hardly had a good rest. Chen Siyuan was worried that his body would not be able to bear it, so after a few times of persuasion, it was useless, so he went to find Gu Qing.

Gu Qing also knew that he couldn't be persuaded, so he simply said: "My lord, I can read some words, what are you looking for, let me help you to read it together!"

Chu Wu looked up at him, suddenly smiled and said, "If you can only read a few words, others should be called illiterate, no matter." He divided half of the scroll in hand to Gu Qing, and gave him a pen and paper, "What do you think? Write down everything that matters."

The number of people who stayed up late to read books changed from one to two. Chen Siyuan had no choice but to ask Qi Le to grind the ink for the two of them, and asked Chen Qi to find more books related to southern Xinjiang on the bookshelf.

On the other hand, he simply cooks himself, making some late-night snacks and health-preserving soup for a few people.

With Gu Qing participating, the speed was indeed much faster. Looking at the beautiful and orderly handwriting on each piece of paper, Chu Wu sighed in his heart that he was indeed a talented person who was famous all over the world back then.

"My lord." Gu Qing was still worried, and couldn't help asking, "Excuse me, what do you think these are for?"

Before Gu Baiji set out to fight, he could still understand it. Looking at it now, it's hard not to think of his future plans.

Chu Wu has been silent these days, and he doesn't see anything on the surface, but in his heart he probably decided to find someone by himself.

But that was southern Xinjiang, the general brought so many people trapped in it, how could Chu Wu go there?

Gu Qing wanted to continue persuading, but Chu Wu just shook his head, "I just think that if there is something that can be used in the future, I will prepare first."

On the second day, someone threw a half-person-high box in front of the general's mansion. The man was extremely fast, put it down and ran away. The guard was unknown, so he was shocked when he opened it. The heads of all the pheasants and birds were chopped off.

Chu Wu knew that the color of the food would not change, he only said that since it was still warm to the touch, it was supposed to be fresh, and wild game was rare, so he asked the family boy to send it directly to the kitchen for extra meals for the whole house.

Although this thing is scary at first glance, since Gu Baiji thoroughly reasoned with the people in the general's mansion, most of the people left behind are veterans who have retired from the battlefield. They are not afraid of this, at most they just feel bad luck. Now Hearing what Chu Wu said, apart from admiring the prince, even the slightest bit of bad luck disappeared.

In the afternoon, the reply letter from Marquis Fuyu arrived. It seems that the person dressed up should be sent by the lowest servants of the Hou Mansion. What he sent was also a dilapidated box, which contained the silver taels requested by the General Mansion. Poor, some more dead branches and weeds were added to fill the herbs, and there was nothing else.

Chu Wu took the box and asked Chen Siyuan, "Are you sure the drug bill was sent to Hou Yu?"

Chen Siyuan nodded, "According to the lord's order, the slave's family will wait outside the gate of the waiting mansion, and hand it directly to the Marquis of Fuyu when he goes out."

"Okay." Chu Wu nodded, so that he can be sure that Li Juncai's aim at the General's Mansion and King Ke is not his intention alone.

Afterwards, Chu Wu still showed no expression, but asked people to give all the silver in the box to the family boy who was beaten and disabled before, and the weeds were thrown away.

After another two days, there was still no news from Gu Baiji, and Li Juncai became even more frenzied.

Petty fights were almost constant, splashing chicken blood at the gate of the General's Mansion, making troubles in the affiliated stores of the General's Mansion, and even when mentioning Chu Wu, the words became more and more rampant.

The Gu family has been in the capital for many years, even if the master has been fighting all the year round, the silver rewards are naturally not fake, and because there is not even a master in the mansion who can prodigal or even like to wear clothes.Moreover, Gu Qing is almost an all-rounder, he knows everything. After he took over the housekeeper of the Gu family, these overseas businesses also participated in part, so those fields and shops accumulated more and more, and it was almost impossible to count.

Therefore, more and more people are staring at the general's mansion. After all, everyone knows that missing on the battlefield is equivalent to death without a place to bury them. They also know that Chu Wu's presence in the general's mansion is just a display, so they all wait for others to show up. After that, I will take advantage of the chaos to fish for something.

What's more, the government is changing rapidly, Gu Baiji is in an important position, if he falls, there will be a big gap, and there are many people who can't wait to pounce on it.

But even so, Chu Wu was still not in a hurry, and on the surface it seemed that nothing happened.

In fact, Chen Siyuan and Chen Qi were almost busy outside for several days in a row, and even Qi Le was sometimes out of control.

The weather was fine that day, Chu Wu was afraid that Gu Nanshu would be suffocated by staying in the mansion all the time, and worried that the children would notice something due to the serious expressions of the people in the mansion, so he decided to take her outside for a walk.

Afraid of any accident, Chu Wu didn't go far, and ate at a restaurant that was only two streets away from the General's Mansion.

The restaurant is located on the busiest street in the capital, and because of its delicious taste and reasonable price, the business is booming.

After Chu Wu arrived with Gu Nanshu, he went directly to eat in the room specially prepared for the master on the second floor.

The room is extremely delicately furnished, and it is only used by the master of the General's Mansion. In addition to the dining table, there is also a small couch for resting. Birds built their nests.

As soon as Gu Nanshu came in, she was excited to see the baby bird. Chu Wu had just ordered food outside the door when she heard a commotion in the lobby downstairs.

Someone threw a bowl and smashed the table, and the movement became louder and louder.

Chu Wu frowned, told Qi Le and Chen Siyuan to take care of Gu Nanshu, and took Gu Qing and Chen Qi downstairs.

The downstairs is already in a mess at this time, and most of the guests have already left for fear of being implicated.

There was only one person sitting on the table in the middle.

Seeing who that person was, Chu Wu couldn't help being a little amused, worrying about an opportunity to attack, but the other party couldn't wait to send it to his door.

Li Juncai was accompanied by six or seven guards and two accountants.At this time, this group of people was stalking three of them.

Gu Qing introduced to Chu Wu in a low voice: "That's the shopkeeper of the restaurant and the servants in other shops."

Chu Wu was standing on the stairs, but Li Juncai didn't see him. He looked around the restaurant, with a bit of pride on his face, and said to the shopkeeper in a harsh tone: "Your people bumped into my little lord. That's all, the people in my mansion died after eating from you, how dare you say it's all right?"

There was panic on the shopkeeper's face, and he shook his head and shouted for grievances, "Young Master, you are wronged, our restaurant has been in business for so many years, how can we eat dead people? Everyone in the small shop can testify that the children of your family have never been to the small shop." Meal. As for...as for bumping into Lord Hou..."

Before the shopkeeper finished speaking, a waiter next to him knelt on the ground and kowtowed in fright: "The villain didn't do it on purpose, really he didn't do it on purpose."
